An excellent book for beginners, with open string tunes which manage to be fun. Well thought out v. easy duets, attractively presented and appealing for children. Anon.

A really inspiring first book. The accompanyment on the cd makes even an open string, basic tune sound accomplished. My seven year old daughter and I have both enjoyed playing from this book. Turtle

A fantastic starter book for a budding violinist.Easy to follow and the CD gives your child confidence to play along with the music.Anon.

My daughter loves this book and having the pieces on CD makes it easy to learn them quicklyAnon.

My daughter loves this new book and her playing/practise has improved greatly with the help of the accompanying CD.Anon.

My item came through very quickly and in perfect condition. My son is now enjoying his lessons and also the CD that came with the book.Anon.

My young daughter was asked to buy this book to accompany her violin lessons and has so far found it easy to follow and the cd has been invaluable.Loopyloo

Excellent for individual or class tuition. In the latter case, very useful where beginners join an established group. Good piano parts too - WHY DO YOU ONLY STOCK THE STRING PARTS?!Anon.

My daughter is enjoying playing the violin with this book. She enjoys the music and she plays these songs with her friends who play the violin too. Kathy and David Blackwell seem to get the notes just right because my daughter is learning very quickly and enjoying every moment of it.Anon.

Excellent book for beginners, very good tunes, and unlike many tutors, teaches all the strings at once, beginning with open strings and progressing on through 1st, 2nd and 3rd fingers. All my pupils enjoy this series, through Joggers to Runners and Sprinters, and the Fiddle Time Scales books are excellent too.Anon.

Perfect, just wanted my daughter wanted!! thank you arrived on time !!!Rahat

The book seems to be very good and what my daughter needs, also the cd is useful for the kids to enjoy and learn.Anon.

There are 47 pieces which is quite much! From these many are easy duets to play with teacher or friend. Tunes are diversified. Design is ok - good paper and colourfull drawings. The Big Disadvantage is lacking of back tracks on CD- we have only demo of each piece which is a pity, because a little much work has to be done and the book might be very good.See more reviews bySorry 4 my english - (Poland)
